EVERY indication points to the possi- bility of obtaining artesian water on the mesa lands to the south of Florence. The surface wells all show a strong cur rent to the north and the rock stratif- cation has a dip in the same direction. By penetrating these rock strata to con siderable depth, say from one hundred feet and upwards, there is scarcely a doubt that flow of water can be secur- ed. It is certainly worth trial, for success will make these lands among the most valuable in the west. Persons who are interested in the development of the country shonld combine and sink we'll to test the feasibility of the pro. feet.

No Need or Cafchfng Cold.

Speaking of colds, have a theory that no one need ever have one unless he chooses; in other ords, that it IS quite possible so to train the skin, that won derful organ which is generally looked upon as the paper wrapper to our human | bundle, as to render 1t non-susceptible to the sudden changes of temperature or atmospheric moisture, whence colds come. And as this is exactly the season to commence such a system of peller edsca- tion, as it has proved effective in many instances within my own knowledge. and as it is within easy reach of every one to try, write it here. The theory is that no skin that has been exposed freely for half an hour at the beginning of the day to temperature lower than 1t will en- counter through the day, will note small changes or be affected thereby.
 cold is simply nervous shock, re- ceived by the myriads of minute nerve terminals that bristle over the surface of the human body, transmitted to the cen ters and SO back again Eto mucous mem brane, the peculiar seat of this special ir- ritation. Let us then so train these sen sitive flores that they will pass by, un- noticed, changes of atmospheric condi- tion, and the matter is accomplishe d. = From The American Magazine for Sep. tember.

TIE tax levy of Pinal county has been fixed at s2.70 on each s1OO valuation, which rate is considerably lower than that of any county in the Territory so far as it is known. The finances of this county are in splendid condition and the indebtedness is merely nominal. War rants bring almost their face value and in a short time they will be cashed upon presentation. With such healthy pub lie condition the people feel that they can invite immigrants knowing that no unusual burden of taxation will be imposed upon them. We have the best mines, the best stock ranches, the largest area and best agricultural lands, the most water, the lightest taxes and tho brightest prospects of auy other portion of Arizona.

PRESCOTT has made the right kind of a start for boom.

Zulick and Ex- Governor Tritle made stirring speeches and exhibited a willingness to help on with the good work. Such action is wanted here in Florence. We must have unity, energy and determination tc shape the tide of events to our favor and the sooner this fact is realized the quicker will the good times come.

TKE town of Flagstaff has been men, aced with destruction through incendiary attempts to rid the place of its Chinese residents. The determination to force these people to leave has been so strong ly expressed that the insur ance compan- ies have notified property owners of their intention to withdraw all policies unless decisive action be taken to protect the town. A public meeting was held last week and among other things resolu- tion was passed urging the Chinese to close out their business and leave or take their chances, and it is believed that most of them will heed the timely in junction. No threats of violence were suggested, but the firm tone of the reso- lution indicates that the people have as sumed an attitude in the matter tha, must be respected. We are glad to wit ness such a peaceful and rational solu tion of the evil as the good people oi Flagstaff have developed.

THE Tucson papers say that "barren'' Reavis is photographing the boundary monuments of the so-called Peralta grant If any of the alleged monuments be now standing the "barren" doubtless built them himself, although we have grave doubts of his having performed labor of any kind. One of his "ancient' monuments is no less than the reserva tion monument of the Pima agency, anG it was built within the memory of dog en living witnesses. We are inclined tt believe that the "barren" runs to shad ows, like his alleged land grant.

PEOPLE suffering with almost any kind of disease and especially those afflicted with pulmonary complaints will find per manent relief by sojourning in the mild climate of southern Arizona, where the atmosphere is dry, pure and bracing. It is marvellous how soon consumptives ac- quire strength and flesh after coming here, and absolute cures are not infre- uuent. Our healthful climate alone is a sufficient inducement to bring hither a large population.
